National Foundation on the Arts and Humanities - OpenTheBooks.com Oversight Report by OpenTheBooks.com

PUBLISHED: JULY 2017 By: Adam Andrzejewski – Founder and CEO of OpenTheBooks.com Thomas W. Smith – Chairman of OpenTheBooks.com “Open the Books is doing the work I envisioned when the Coburn-Obama bill became law. Their innovative app and other tools are putting sunlight through a magnifying glass.” March 11, 2014 Dr. Tom Coburn, Honorary Chairman of OpenTheBooks.com

OUR REPORT MADE POSSIBLE BY: The “Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006” Sponsors: Sen. Tom Coburn (R-OK) & Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) (Public Law 109-282, 109th Congress) “Is the spending in the public interest or the special interest?” – U.S. Sen. Tom Coburn

“I know that restoring transparency is not only the surest way to achieve results, but also to earn back the trust in government…” – U.S. Sen. Barack Obama

NATIONAL FOUNDATION ON THE ARTS AND HUMANITIES OVERSIGHT REPORT BY OPENTHEBOOKS.COM

prologue Every year, celebrities such as Katy Perry, Pharrell Williams, Madonna, Alex Rodriguez and Jennifer Lopez grace the red carpet at the “Met Gala,” a benefit for New York City’s Metropolitan Museum of Art. The star power helps the organization raise up to $300 million annually. Since 2009, however, the Met has received federal grants totaling $1.2 million from the National Foundation on the Arts and Humanities (NFA-H). The Met can’t argue that it needed the money – it has more than $3.7 billion in financial assets. Our OpenTheBooks Oversight Report – The National Foundation on the Arts and Humanities found that well-heeled, public charities such as the Met take hundreds of millions of dollars in public funding annually. Particularly, charitable organizations that had at least $1 million each in assets received $143 million last year. Those organizations included universities with billion-dollar endowments including Harvard, Yale, Northwestern, Notre Dame and University of Michigan. In the arts community, there is a stark contrast between the haves and have-nots. We found 71 charitable organizations – with at least $1 billion each in assets – received nearly $120 million in federal funding since 2009. Then, there were the “starving artist” organizations – 1,027 organizations with assets under $1 million – that received just $41 million in federal grants (FY2016). President Donald Trump’s budget seeks to eliminate federal funding of the arts. Conversely, supporters of the arts, such as Hollywood actor Robert Redford, seek increased funding (see Sundance Foundation case study, page 7).

This report raises several questions that should elevate that debate: • Why are taxpayers funding nonprofits that have assets of at least $1 billion? Do charities have a right to public funding no matter how strong their balance sheet? • If the public purpose is to fund the starving artist, then why are small organizations (less than $1 million in assets) receiving just $1 of every $4 in NFA-H nonprofit grant-making? • Should prestigious universities receive arts and humanities funding despite their billion-dollar endowments? • Who can explain the public purpose in forcing working-class taxpayers to fund arts organizations that obviously don’t need the money?

Who We Are American Transparency is a public charity as well. We do not accept government money. Last year, our partnership with the Ohio Treasurer enhanced transparency, allowing citizens to search 151 million state expenditures from their mobile phones. We did it pro bono, even though it cost us $40,000. Our oversight report only presents the hard data without recommendation on policy. Both sides of the reauthorization-budget debate should use our data to enhance the public discourse. Download our raw data sets here.

case study

Broadway Grants – Lincoln Center for Performing Arts, New York City – Four Nonprofit Organizations with $1.07 Billion in Assets The National Endowment of the Arts (NEA) gave $4.25 million in grants to four organizations at the Lincoln Center for Performing Arts in New York City (since FY2009). These nonprofits have combined assets exceeding $1 billion. Since 2009, the NFA-H awarded the Metropolitan Opera Association $1.8 million (assets – $429.5 million); the Philharmonic Symphony Society of New York $1.3 million (assets – $242.1 million); the New York City Ballet $730,000 (assets – $226.6 million); and the Vivian Beaumont Theater $475,000 (assets – $170.8 million). The Vivian Beaumont Theater has received $475,000 since FY2009. Over the years, news accounts reveal NEA awarded grants to the productions of Rodgers and Hammerstein’s The King and I, South Pacific and War Horse. Additionally, in 2009, the NFA-H gave the Vivian Beaumont Theater a “Stimulus Grant” of $50,000 to “support the preservation of jobs that are threatened by declines in philanthropic and other support during the current economic downturn.” Headlining Broadway performances received at least $1.49 million from the NEA. The New York Stage and Film Company’s “Powerhouse Season” received $30,000 to work on developing new stage performances, one of which was the Broadway blockbuster Hamilton, written by Lin-Manuel Miranda. Hamilton was an immediate success, with projected revenue over $1 billion in its first year according to The New York Times.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York City – $551,028 (CY2016)

Total Assets: $3.73 Billion | Annual Revenue: $660.9 Million | NFA-H Grants (FY2009-FY2016): $1.22 Million The Metropolitan Museum of Art is a public charity with $4 billion in assets. Yet, the Met received $1.22 million in grants and contracts from the NFA-H (FY2009-FY2016). Calendar year 2016 was the biggest year of NFA-H grants to the Met, which received $551,028. During the period when the Met received hundreds of thousands in NFA-H (taxpayer) dollars, the museum’s asset base grew dramatically – by nearly $1 billion. In FY2009, the Met disclosed $2.9 billion in assets. Five years later, the Met’s FY2014 IRS Form 990 showed $3.73 billion in assets. Publicist Paul Wilmot calls the Met’s annual gala an “ATM for the Met.” On May 1, the annual gala starred co-chairs Perry and Williams and welcomed A-list celebrities such as Katy Perry, Pharrell Williams, Madonna, Alex Rodriguez, Jennifer Lopez and more. The Met raised $300 million in annual revenue, according to its latest available IRS Form 990 informational return.

Borderlands Theater, Tucson, AZ – $10,000 (FY2016)

Total Assets: $34,912 | Annual Revenue: $228,461 | NFA-H Grants (FY2009-FY2016): $90,000 The Borderlands Theater received $10,000 from the NFA-H to support a series of site-responsive performances celebrating the saguaro cactus. First, attendees stand or sit with a saguaro cactus for an hour in the middle of the desert. Participants are encouraged to see what the cactus can teach them during this hour and share their experience on social media using the hashtag #IStandWithSaguaros. After spending quality time with the saguaros, attendees can learn more on a radio podcast at KXCI Community Radio, The Saguaro Minute. Then, there’s a site-responsive theater experience and cactus celebration – “Day at the Park” – blending story, song, poem and dance. The director of the Saguaro Experience, artist Kimi Eisele, “swears that a saguaro speaks. Or at least whispers,” according to the Tucson Weekly.

Total Assets: $218.6 Million | Annual Revenue: $72.7 Million | NFA-H Grants (FY2009-FY2016): $2.2 Million The Brookfield Zoo received a $131,488 Museums for America grant from the NFA-H to “explore innovative ways to use blogs and social media to engage audiences in environmental actions and measure their engagement.” The project focused on promoting “pro-environmental” topics like climate change prevention and sustainability. The zoo planned to use the grant to engage with the public and encourage people to promote these environmental ideas through social media. The Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) claims this project will “support participants in overcoming psychological barriers to participation in pro-environmental actions.” The zoo shared its findings with the greater zoological community on social media.

The community has a declining population.

Kennesaw State University, Kennesaw, GA – $20,000 (FY2016) NFA-H Grants (FY2009-FY2016): $92,000

Kennesaw State University used taxpayer dollars to fund the creation of “Fake Grass,” which resemble hanging strings of light. The school received $20,000 to create a visual art project called “Ipomoea,” which consists of “interactive theater” sets. Audiences are invited to walk through and draw inspiration from an “urban garden meant to evoke grass in an inverted field.” “This is what we call grass,” said one of the designers, referring to the hanging strings. NPR interviewed the creators who described these strings “like the tentacles of some incandescent jellyfish or something.” Xbox Kinect motion sensors hidden behind the strings set off recorded sounds of birds when people wave their hands.

GOVERNMENT ENTITIES and INDIAN TRIBES (GOVERNMENT–LABELED) STATE & LOCAL GOVERNMENT GRANTS:

$157.3 million

INDIAN TRIBES (GOVERNMENT-LABELED) GRANTS:

$4.8 mILLION

Key Facts about the NFA-H Grants to Government and Government-Labeled “Indian Tribes” • The two largest NFA-H grants in 2016 flowed to government institutions: California State Library ($15.3 million) and the Texas State Library and Archives Commission ($10.95 million). • Of all NFA-H grant recipients, state governments reaped eight of the top 10 largest grants.

• Every state library organization receives a LSTA grant under NFA-H funding, totaling $130 million in FY2016. Some projects include lending libraries, shared databases, helping replace flooded book collections and similar state-specific projects.

• Most state-government grants funded libraries; historical archive efforts to preserve national treasures, culture or significant collections; Library Services and Technology (LSTA) grants; and Innovative Approaches to Literacy (IAL) programs.

• Half of IAL, under NFA-H, funds school libraries while the other half flows to nonprofit organizations to purchase books and literacy training for teachers, according to the American Library Magazine.

case study

Illinois Secretary of State – $5.5 Million The NFA-H granted the Illinois Secretary of State $5,513,648 for two different projects. The first portion ($5,488,648) went toward an LSTA to fund various library, knowledge access, training programs and other such activities as noted by the NEA. The other portion ($25,000) went toward “Sparks! Ignition.” “These small grants encourage libraries and archives to test and evaluate specific innovations in the ways they operate and the services they provide,” according to the NFA-H.

SALARY AND BONUS STUDY OF NATIONAL FOUNDATION on the ARTS AND HUMANITIES (NFA-H) Today, the NFA-H average employee salary is $96,500 (FY2016).

about american transparency EVERY DIME. ONLINE. IN REAL TIME. Our mission is to post online “every dime” taxed and spent by federal, state and local units of government across America. We use the latest in technology to display the spending, including the first-to-market mobile app – Open The Books - which hyperlocalized all disclosed United States Government checkbook spending since 2000.

Download the OpenTheBooks app here: http://www.openthebooks.com/mobileapp/ Through our public charity at American Transparency (website: www.OpenTheBooks.com), we’ve created the world’s largest private repository of government spending. Our big data specialists have captured 3.5 billion individual public expenditures. Not only do we open the books, we audit the books. On a quarterly basis, we publish OpenTheBooks Oversight Reports.

Recent investigations include: Ivy League, Inc.; Federal Funding of America’s Sanctuary Cities; The Militarization of America; Veterans Affairs - The VA Scandal Two Years Later; Truth in Lending - the U.S. Small Business Administration’s $24.2 Billion Failed Loan Portfolio; The Department of Self-Promotion - Quantifying $4.4 Billion in Federal Public Relations; U.S. Environmental Protection Agency; Lawyered Up - 25,000 Federal Lawyers Cost $26.2 Billion Since 2007; U.S. Export - Import Bank; Federal Funding of the Fortune 100; U.S. Small Business Administration’s Lending to the Wealthy Lifestyle; and Farm Subsidies in America’s Urban Areas. Visit OpenTheBooks.com to learn more and read these reports.

The Board of Directors at American Transparency (OpenTheBooks.com) thanks our team: Adam Andrzejewski, Founder and Chief Executive Officer, authored this report. Matthew Tyrmand, Deputy Director, disseminated this report to national media. Craig Mijares, Chief Operating Officer at American Transparency assembled and organized datasets. Frank Bruno, Director of Government Oversight managed our data investigation and oversight teams. Jessie Fox, Communications Specialist, helped draft and edit the report.

Research Interns included: Lauren Adams, Hillsdale College, Hillsdale, Michigan; Adam Cieply, Hillsdale College, Hillsdale, Michigan; Patrick Farrell, Hillsdale College, Hillsdale, Michigan; Alec Mena, Hillsdale College, Hillsdale, Michigan; John Zachariah Shuster, Emory University, Atlanta, Georgia; Madalen Strumpf, Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana; Daniel Sutkowski, Loyola University, Chicago, Illinois. This report quantifies federal transactions compiled at www. OpenTheBooks.com as a result of the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006. To the extent the government makes mistakes in reporting inaccurate or incomplete data, our report will reflect these same mistakes.
